Nsl Achieves Unique Nationwide Sia Accreditation

NSL, one of the UK's leading outsourced services providers, has retained its accreditation as a Security Industry Authority Approved Contractor.
 
The company delivers services including enforcement against untaxed vehicles - for the DVLA - and public space CCTV surveillance for crime and disorder and traffic management for local authorities.
 
Both these specialisms require organisations to achieve the Approved Contractor Scheme Standard ratified by the SIA. Normally this Standard is only applied to local operations and departments, but NSL is the only company in the UK that has nationwide accreditation for Vehicle Immobilisation, which means it can more rapidly deploy staff on its national DVLA contract. SIA licensing accreditation is required in case enforcement action needs to be taken on private land to which the public has access, such as car parks.
 
Chris Dexter, NSL's national operations manager for DVLA, commented: “We have been very effective in getting untaxed vehicles off the UK's roads and SIA accreditation is very important in helping us do that job - but also in assuring the public that the job is being delivered to the highest possible professional standards.
 
“Being the only company in this field with nationwide accreditation means we are able to deploy all our staff in accordance with SIA regulations - which means the service is being delivered to the highest-quality and in the most cost-effective manner.  I am delighted we have been able to achieve this unique recognition.”
 
As part of NSL's ongoing commitment to excellence and attaining the highest possible standards we employ Edexcel/SIA qualified trainers, who are accredited to deliver the relevant training programmes and assessment in house, before the company is ratified by the British Standards Institute.
